Requirements like the bar exam exist also to protect the insiders who also happen to make the rules. In economics it's called an insider-outsider problem. Not saying we should actually abolish the bar, just hinting at a possible reasonable argument.

also called regulatory capture

I'd say that's something different. Regulatory capture is when a regulator who is supposed to be outside the system gets drawn into it (like a banking regulator who gets defensive about a flawed risk model by a bank after they've given their approval). Bar associations are by definition run by people who are part of the system.
